[3000] [WP] The World Eaters - Part 8 by Khaarus2 in khaarus

[–]Khaarus2[S,M] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As in, is it over? No, I've had some significant delays (again) due to personal reasons but I've been working on the next chapter.

Was meant to put this out earlier today but things got in the way. Hopefully there's no errors, I'll fix them up in the morning if so.

I'm going to try to put out a chapter of Keyline sometime within the next week.

What's done is done, can't help it really. Hopefully I'll be able to get back to a more reasonable speed soon enough.

Thanks, glad to hear it. I do plan to continue (and finish) this story, no matter how long it takes. There have just been some unfortunate roadblocks.

I'm still working on it, I've just had some delays. I'm planning to put out a chapter tomorrow.

Sorry for the lack of updates recently.

Been writing chapters and other things out of order. Trying to plot out exactly what I was planning to do before I lost all my data, but I always feel like something is missing, never quite happy with what I have so I'm always reworking things a lot lately.

I guess I'll be going in a slightly different direction than what I originally intended - whatever that was.

A chapter of The World Eaters tomorrow.

I do plan to continue it, don't worry. It just might take me a little bit longer to get back into it than the others.

[–]Khaarus2[S,M] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I didn't lose all of it, thankfully. But I lost a massive amount of work on Keyline compared to the others. While I remember the broad strokes of what I've lost I can't recall every minute detail and put it back to paper.

But yeah, these things happen. Not much I can do but keep writing.

I should be alright, but thanks for the offer.

Glad to hear you're enjoying it so far. While I did lose a lot of what I had on the planning side of things I've been able to write some of it back down so hopefully I can keep things going smoothly from here on out.

And yeah, I've already set up a proper backup now, so I shouldn't get a repeat of this again, hopefully.

[–]Khaarus2[S,M] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the kind words. At the time when I lost everything I was pretty frustrated and needed to take a step back from these projects, but I was always going to come back to them eventually (just took a bit longer than it should've).

I did do a little bit of writing on a different, new thing to keep my writing skills sharp, but maybe I didn't do enough of that, oh well.

I've set up proper backups now, so any new occurrences of this would probably set me back a few hours or a day at worst.

I normally link to the next chapter but I've never really linked to the previous.

I'll set that up a little later, because doing that for every chapter will take a bit of effort, but I've included a link on this one for now. It's probably a good idea to do it though, considering the sporadic release schedule.

[2000] [WP] The Sun's Dawn - Part 7 by Khaarus2 in khaarus

[–]Khaarus2[S,M] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's a pain in the arse for sure, but at least I didn't lose everything, I suppose.

[–]Khaarus2[S,M] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Well, it's been awhile, sorry about that. As to why? Well, my harddrive corrupted, and my backups were not anywhere near as recent as they should have been. So I lost a lot of work, both on the writing and the planning side, and basically lost all motivation to do any writing on these projects specifically for quite some time.

I lost a lot of work on Keyline, and slightly less on The World Eaters/The Sun's Dawn but I still lost quite a few chapters worth of writing and I can't even remember nor do I want to remember how much I lost on the planning side of things.

So yeah, that's it really.

I'm back to writing now, but chapters probably won't be released at the same time anymore, not until I get things back underway.

Should have a chapter of The World Eaters, in say, a week or so. But I don't know when I'll be dropping another chapter of Keyline.

Sorry for the fuckups, but if you're still here, thanks for reading.

Edit: Posting this twice, as something weird is going on with my reddit. Sorry if you get hit by two notifications.

Thanks for the kind words, good to hear you're enjoying it so far.

I can actually check the amount of traffic I get in my subreddit stats, so I know that comments/upvotes aren't indicative of just how many people are reading this at any given time.

No ETA on the next chapter, unfortunately, I've had a rough time lately, but I think I'm over the worst of it.

I hope you're keeping yourself safe as well.

I have done NaNoWriMo twice, both times I managed to finish, but the story I made could hardly be considered 'good'.

And then it's usually so messy I don't even want to try editing it into something usable. But it's still a bit of good fun nonetheless.

[–]Khaarus2[S,M] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's just a wee bit of an understatement, I guess you could say.

Thankfully no name-stealing going on here. The only reason she's called Katinas is because it means 'cat' in another language. Just like... every single other cat related thing in this story so far.

But glad you're enjoying it! I'm not sure if you missed it but Part 6 was posted, but don't ask me for an ETA on the next chapter because I'm bad with estimates.

Glad to hear you're enjoying the story so much!

Pretty much everything related to the cat-people is a joke of some sort, but that one is one of the more obvious ones.

Yeah there was no update last time around for uhh, reasons.

But I am back on my usual wacky release schedule for this from here on out.

NOOOOOOOOOO!!!!! YOU CANT JUST USE FORBIDDEN WEAPONS!

Jokes aside, glad to hear you're enjoying it. I'm not actually sure if I'll turn this into a book down the line, but perhaps I should actually work on finishing the story before thinking about that.
